We begin our 2020 season with a special episode as our host Richard Dagenais sits down for a one-on-one interview with Mayor Valerie Plante. She has changed the direction of city hall since she was voted into office two years ago. But what are her plans for the second half of her term? Richard digs into the topics that concern all Montrealers... City services, transportation and if there are any new projects in the works. Plus we get some personal insights from the mayor.
